Stupid Facial Hair!!!!
My fellowship is doing this thing where all the guys are supposed to go without shaving until the first or second week in February. Lemme just say, that my fellowship isn't the reason I was going to grow out a beard, but it gives me a good excuse when I'm at work and someone asks me why I look like I really need a shave. Anyways, the process of growing this facial hair out is killing me. I need it to be just a bit longer, so that it doesn't itch like hell randomly. It should be fairly soon. Too bad I'm not photogenic, I would post some pictures.
So today at work was interesting I guess (for lack of a better word to describe it.) I made it my mission this morning to get my little back office together. Since I'd taken over the position, I hadn't made any efforts to really clear things out. So my predecessor's stuff was still in the drawers and really all over the place. I thought that it was high time that I began to make that space mine, and get some organization there. It basically took about all day for me to do this, while putting together some bids for people every now and then. That wasn't too stressful. However, the crowning glory of the day was the fact that we were going to have the new district manager there, and he was going to be checking things out in our store for the first time. That was kinda nerve wracking, because I didn't want him to think that I was just kinda loafing around since it was a friday, but I had to finish what I started. So, I kinda had to tiptoe around the guy so that he wouldn't come into the back and start grillin' me. It worked for the most part. I was able to stay busy enough to stay out of his way, and keep him from chattin' it up with me.
Co-workers!!!
What do I say about my delightful co-workers? I've been spending lots of time with them lately outside of work. Playing board games and hitting up the bars every once in a while. I have to say that it's very interesting to get to know people past what you see of them on the floor and in uniform. Lots of them have very interesting lives, but it's funny to know that no matter what they're like in their personal lives, it seems like they have bits of work alter egos.
I might go further into this at another time, I have to really think about what I wanna say about people before I just start typing stuff up.
I need to go to sleep eventually.
I just have one more thing to type.
HOLLY!
we'll let that one marinate.
I'm out...
